Ok people, I think we should introduce ourselfs. You may gues my name...

I live in México. Zapopan, wich a city located in the state of Jalisco (remember Tequila and Mariachis? well, all from Jalisco)

What do I do for a living?, This may come as a surprise, but actually I am a Neurosurgeon, or a Brainsurgeon if you prefer. So, yes, I'm a Physician. I also have a Master of Science degree (in Immunology) and currently I'm working on getting my PhD. (But don't even dare calling me a Nerd Yell)

About chess, I've been playing since I was 6 or 7. I started playing seriously when I was in 8th grade. In the 11th grade I became my hometown champion. Then I stoped playing for a while, went to Medical School. I played a few tournaments while there, but never won any. Then I went to do my residency in Neurosurgery, and I couldn't play anymore for a while. Once I finished I decided to go back and get my Master of Science degree and later my PhD. I started playing again about a month ago. Had to grease uo those old gears to put the machine in motion, but I'm regaining my confdence and remembering all of those lessons.

So, I've been on and off the game for about 32 years now. Once I was even a member of USCF (rated and everything), but that was over 20 years ago. I'm starting fresh.

I accept challenges, but if I don't I'm probably just to busy doing surgery on somebody's brain, so don't take it personal.

I think thats a great idea. My actual name is not Lelouch its Chase. I'm 17 and I will be finishing my junoir year in high school this week. I've known how to play chess since i was little but i only started getting into it this past year. before then i couldn't beat anybody. I plan on going to westpoint military academy after i graduate. i want to study to become a doctor while there and probably do something like mario in surgery. it's also my goal to steadily improve in chess for the next 20 or so years and see how far i can get. If you didn't already know i founded this group and i hope that we will become very succesful.

Hey, Im MD. Im a good friend of Chase. We go to the same school and are in the same grade. I've also played chess my entire life, and just got back in to it lately, still kinda rusty. But, i plan on becoming attending Southern Polytechnic University and get a degree in Mechanical Egineering. I plan on becoming a Robotics Engineer. And as well, i hope our group can become succesful, and maybe be recogonied as a threat some day. :P

Hello, my name is Eric (einstein2191), and I am 16 and live in the bay area, California. I've played chess seriously for about 3 years now and really enjoy the game. I also enjoy bowling, video games, and a variety of small sports as my hobbies. I just watched the end of the Code Geass R2 season and the ending was mindblowing! It was a really great anime and although chess is put into the anime just as a symbol, it is still a great watch and I would reccomend it to anyone.

Hope to have a fun time here,
